There's a problem... Even if I skip byte-compilation of these files for emacs-snapshot, I still add the directory /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacs-goodies-el at the end of the load-path. But this is done too soon during startup and this directory ends up shadowing the emacs-snapshot file /usr/share/emacs/22.0.50/lisp/net/newsticker.elc We need to be able to add to the load-path without shadowing files that may or may not be present (i.e. present in emacs-snapshot but not in emacs21).
